This dear, sweat soul has been cleaning for us for well over 10 years. She is moving away and taking a piece of us with her. We've been through Quinceaners, losses, illness, new babies, milestone birthdays, you name it. Vicky-Tanya, we will miss your sweet treats, tamales, Spanish lessons and strong hugs...oh yes, and your cleaning too. Cheers to a new life in KS.

12.19.15 Marigold update! Guess who we ran into at her first adoption outing! Hoping for a fantastic forever home for this sweet girl!

It began with a little rock candy toast, first stitches {5}, but brother didn't let that get in the way of a little "Santa. Hohohoo, Merry Christmas", during stitch #3...

12.26.15 Tornado shelter...in December...touch down 8 miles East of us in West Rockwall.

Sadly, this was the only documentation that Mama G and Papa G joined us (all the way from Fayetteville) for a post-stitches Christmas dinner and a few more days of Christmas celebrating....maybe too much celebrating. We love you guys so much!

12.29.15 SMU at Tulsa

We were so happy Grams and PopPop drove over from Fayetteville to help us cheer on the Ponies!

See ya later 2015, cheers 2016...time to plan another party! Here comes 40!

CAYMAN - DEC '15

-FIRST away SMU basketball game.- Both kids were sooooo into Christmas this year, so it was soo much fun!!!

SAWYER - DEC '15

- 12.22.15 That pesky cough finally turned into croup...- FIRST stitches...and not our last I bet.- FIRST SMU basketball game, away at Tulsa.- 2nd BIRTHDAY - "Happy Birthday"is one of your favorite songs, so today was quite the treat since you could sing it to yourself over and over! - Such the copy cat. Anything your sister does or says...good or bad...is fair game. Still struggling with the words vs. whining battle, but there has been improvment. You had an absolute ball at your party. Just a few close friends on your birthday night
